  I echo this "thanks" to DJ.  I was working on a 386DX/20 running  
DOS, and had gotten about as far as I could with Turbo C.  It was a  
good system, but it was like pulling teeth when compared to  
developing on [what at the time was my] modern system, a Sun 4/110  
running SunOS 4.1.  I finally found djgpp and it was like a breath of  
fresh air.
